A while ago on oppo !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

As I understand you did karting also Travis. Well I took your advice about the wet clutch kind of because we were forced to, as it instantly burned up during a yard test. So now the kart is running happily with a dry clutch. A little over a week ago we attended our first race of the year, with some !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! of the feature race I finished 2nd in.
So from one karter to another, any advice you could give me Travis? All other karters are welcome to pitch in. Also in the onboard video we didn't get very high RPMs (14k+) because of a not fully tightened spark plug, so it crippled me on the brief stretch of straight line.
Also have a picture of our kart now, the #100, with a tron style design. That ugly blue thing in the link above? This is it now:

Nothing in particular really, just any good advice you picked up from others in the sport, or learned yourself.

Haha, oh yes it is. I'd say with the full 14k+ power band on this track, you can get up to 55-60 MPH in that short stretch.

My PS skills are crappy but, someone should definitely shop a power sliding taxi onto this blank Bat Signal.... It would be perfect.

Yes, Mychron 3 Basic. Measures RPM, lap times, and cylinder head temperature.

YEp ive got a few, check your RPMs in the middle and exit of the turn. all about the exit speed and how much you are carrying through the corner
